This week’s featured Pathway is from the Year 3 Language Arts Guided Journey and is sure to be fun for all ages!  Based on the delightful tale of a young boy who wakes up one day to discover is entire body is flat, Flat Stanely Part 1 and Part 2, is a great addition to your summer reading line up.

Paper DollsPart 1: Try to imagine waking up one morning and finding that your entire body is suddenly as flat as a pancake. That’s what happens to a boy named Stanley in this very funny story by Jeff Brown. This week you will begin reading the first three chapters of the book, “Flat Stanley.” You will make a poster of yourself as a Flat Stanley, write a Five W’s poem about how Stanley becomes flat, find and measure flat things around your home, and much more. Your writing assignments this week include writing a letter, writing about the most unexpected thing that has ever happened to you, and writing about the best and worst of being a flat person. Language arts will focus on choosing the most specific word to complete a simple sentence. This unit is designed to last one week, depending on how often you teach language arts.
